Musty Flick Define Who We Are CD
MUSTY FLICK is fine Midwest emo. They are mellower than some Midwest emo bands and can slip into dreamy indie rock, but they can also switch back and be on pace with the other Midwest emo bands. There is a label called Tiny Engines, and I feel like this could be a decent fit on their roster with SOMOS, LAPÊCHE, HOT JOY, ALIEN BOY, PERSONAL SPACE, and others. I tracked down a show of theirs on YouTube and found them to be humble and charming, two things I was not expecting. MUSTY FLICK is from Southeast Iowa, and maybe you won’t completely find their sound to your liking, but they are on an island in the Middle West and they are trying to swim against the current. If this review is to keep at all with the origin and intent of MRR, then my hope is that someone from a neighboring town or state will build a bridge and start connecting. It’s never too late to start a scene.
